Albatross
Night and day,
the wings ache
This wind,
keeps him awake
I see you there,
cruising the sea air
This long wing,
comforting
Night and day
Many miles covered
Flight astray
Many seas discovered
Albatross
Southern seas
Southern cross
Antartic freeze
This wing
Home it will bring
Albatross
Southern cross
Night skies
Southern stars
Albatross flies
